Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

"Qianxun, after spending these days together, I have already regarded you as my good brother. I will speak frankly. Your plan has too many loopholes. There are so many people to rescue, and retreating is a difficult task. I am afraid that sacrifices will be inevitable this time!"

Qianxun sighed helplessly, "Besides this, we have no other choice! For the sake of the young lady and Mr. Huo, we are willing to give it a try!

Gu Junheng shook his head gently, "Have you tracked down the masked man from that day? Do you think he will bring Sister Ruhuan to watch the execution tomorrow?"

Qianxun tapped the table with her nimble fingers, "It is indeed possible. Junheng, tomorrow you will be responsible for looking for the young lady in the restaurants and hotels high above the vegetable market!"

Gu Junheng agreed readily, as he would not feel at ease if he did not do something.

So after lunch, Gu Junheng went to Caishikou, where the execution would take place tomorrow, to observe the terrain.

He stood in the center of Caishikou and looked around. There were two two-story taverns and a three-story gambling house.

So he went around all three hotels. The rooms near the windows could see the center of Caishikou. One of them had a room facing it, but the owner said that the room had already been booked by a distinguished person for tomorrow!

After walking around, he had a certain understanding of the terrain here, then walked into an alley and whistled.

After a moment, seven or eight young men flew over and asked, "What do you want, Master?"

Gu Junheng looked at the few people and said, "Tomorrow, send someone to keep an eye on the two restaurants and the gambling house in Caishikou! If anyone holds a young woman hostage, rescue her!"

"Yes! I obey your command!" Several people dispersed instantly.

Inside Prince Jing’s Palace.

Bai Xiaofeng had just finished taking Xiao Jingxuan's pulse, but it was still weak and the toxins were accumulating more and more seriously. The detoxification pills he fed him had no effect. The wound was black and purple, and black and purple blood continued to flow out of it.

Fei Ye hadn't slept for two days, and there was a purple tint under his eyes.

He helped Xiao Jingxuan up, took the medicine bowl and fed him the medicine, but he spilled most of it every time.

"Doctor Bai, is there no way to save my prince? If this continues, the prince may be in danger of his life!"

Bai Xiaofeng also had a worried look on his face. It was the first time he encountered such a tricky poison. There was no record of it in medical books and he had never seen it in his life!

"I am also very anxious, but I don't know what kind of poison it is, so I can't accurately prescribe the right medicine. If there is no antidote in three days, the poison will definitely enter my heart meridians, and then no medicine will work!"

Fei Ye suddenly became depressed. What if something happened to the prince? What should he do? The imperial physician came in the morning, but he also shook his head and left. There was nothing he could do!

"The prince hasn't woken up in two days! Doctor Bai, is there any way to wake him up?"

Bai Xiaofeng pondered for a while, "Yes, there is, but this method is very painful and will also consume some of my energy! Okay, you go and prepare the herbs, I'll try it on him tonight. Even if the poison can't be cured, it will at least help him wake up for a while!"

After Fei Ye finished feeding the medicine, he stood up and went out to find herbs for Bai Xiaofeng. Just then, the housekeeper Uncle De came in and said, "Doctor Bai, how is the prince? Have you found a way to detoxify him?"

Bai Xiaofeng shook his head, "I don't know what poison I was poisoned with yet. I've tried all kinds of antidote pills, but they don't work for now!"

Uncle De sighed, his eyes filled with heartache. It had not been easy for the prince along the way. His life had finally gotten better and he had the woman he loved, but he did not expect this to be the result. Uncle De turned around and secretly wiped away his tears.

As it was almost evening, Fei Ye gathered all the medicinal herbs. Bai Xiaofeng began to give acupuncture to Xiao Jingxuan, with Fei Ye guarding him at the side.

He saw silver needles flying, and in a flash, many silver needles were inserted into Xiao Jingxuan's head and chest. Several times when the needles were inserted, Fei Ye felt him frown, and at the last time, he even hummed.

After the acupuncture, Bai Xiaofeng was sweating profusely. Acupuncture consumes both physical strength and internal energy, and he rarely uses this acupuncture method.

Then he poured the boiled medicine into his mouth. After about half an hour, he pulled out the silver needle and let him lie down. A layer of sweat was seen on his head.

Another half an hour passed, and Xiao Jingxuan groaned slightly, frowning. In a trance, he felt as if many needles were pricking him, which was extremely painful. He wanted to scream but couldn't. Finally, he felt that he had used up all his strength before he could groan.

Xiao Jingxuan woke up!

"Prince! Prince! Are you awake?" Several people surrounded the bed and called out to him.

He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the people. He felt pain from the wounds on his body, but he couldn't care less. He looked around and didn't see the person he wanted to see. His face instantly fell.

"Where's Ruhuan? Has she been rescued? Where is she? I want to see her!"

Several people looked at each other, and finally Fei Ye spoke up, "Your Highness, that day Fei Xue and the others went in pursuit. After catching up with the masked man and Miss Qin, they were surrounded and attacked. Fei Xue and the others were seriously injured, and several others died on the spot. Miss Qin was not rescued!"

After hearing this, Xiao Jingxuan's face suddenly changed, and he wanted to get up with a trembling voice, "I want to save her! I want to save her!"

Fei Ye hurriedly held him down, "Prince, Prince, you are seriously injured, and you are also poisoned. Even Doctor Bai can't cure the poison! Prince, please take care of yourself first!" Fei Ye shouted with tears in his eyes.

Xiao Jingxuan raised his eyes to look at Bai Xiaofeng, who nodded slightly, "If we can't find the antidote within three days, the poison will probably enter our internal organs, and even the Great Luo Immortal can't save us! Brother Jingxuan, I really tried my best!"

After saying that, Bai Xiaofeng turned his head away, not daring to look at him. This was the first time he called him Brother Jingxuan. They had known each other since they were teenagers and their relationship was closer than that of brothers. Now he had the reputation of being a miracle doctor but could not save his best brother, and he felt very guilty.

After hearing this, Xiao Jingxuan's expression dimmed, and he immediately asked Fei Ye, "How is Fei Xue? I am most worried about you two, so you should support and help each other in the future!"

Fei Ye nodded with tears in his eyes, "Feixue has been in a coma for a day, and now her life is no longer in danger! Your Majesty, don't worry!"

Xiao Jingxuan nodded, "I'm glad he's okay! Have you tracked down any information about the masked man?"

Fei Ye shook his head sadly, "There is another group of our people, it seems to be that Qianxun, who is also tracking the masked man, but there is no news yet!"

Xiao Jingxuan suddenly remembered something, "How many days have I been in a coma? What day is today?"

"You have been in a coma for two days. Today is the seventh day!" Bai Xiaofeng said.

Xiao Jingxuan endured the pain and tried to sit up. "Tomorrow is the day for the execution of the Prime Minister and the General?"

"Your Highness, it will be tomorrow!"

Xiao Jingxuan seemed to be thinking about something, and muttered quietly, "He will be executed tomorrow!"

She knew that she would be heartbroken. How could she bear it if her father and maternal grandfather were all killed?
